Intake Air Temperature Sensor 2 Circuit Low Bank 2
IAT sensor 2 bank 2 signal voltage below expected range — short to ground. The intake air temperature sensor feeds the ECM's density calculation — a drifted reading miscalculates fuel mass and pushes mixture lean (cold reading) or rich (hot reading).
Affected components
- Iat sensor 2
- Sensor wiring
Common causes
- High likelihood: Signal wire shorted to ground
- Low likelihood: Connector pins corroded - high contact resistance
- Low likelihood: Harness chafing through insulation
